I am reminded of one of my favorite quotes from Mario Andretti, "The difference between champions and also rans is that champions recognize their mistakes faster." Everyone fuchs up, but if you realize it immediately, the correction could be so small, it is hardly noticed. If you wait until the results of that initial mistake have had time to grow, frequently the correction must be much larger.

In this case, a slight breathe off the throttle before the apex would have nipped the issue in the bud. You realized a bit late, but in time to open the wheel as you crossed into the dirt. If you realized later, you may have needed to correct for all four off and a large developing yaw angle.

This lesson applies throughout life. Dating, politics, career, drinking. You name it, the sooner you realized you are on the wrong path, the easier it is to get back on track.
